My dogs love Pawswoof doggy daycare. Great space and lots of activities. Staff are friendly and welcoming. It’s also nice to be able to buy dog food when picking up as it saves a trip to the pet shop.

Pawswoof had my little 10 week old pup all day today and he absolutely loved it. He has done nothing but have cuddles and go to sleep since I got him back. Thank you so much for your updates during the day and how much attention you took to his training and food routines. Thank you again and won't use anyone else � More...

I heard about pawswoof through friends who take their dogs there and after speaking to Vickie she has looked after Indie twice now and both times she’s come back knackered and wanting to sleep! She loves it with Vickie and her doggy friends I’m very happy with the service provided and all at an excellent price! X More...

I can't recommend Pawswoof enough. Buddy & Scarlet are having the time of their lives since joining the Pawswoof pack in Feb.
The photos and videos say it all! My dogs love mud...and they love Vickie even more for providing it for them! In 1 hour on a walk with Vickie, Scarlet was as active as she was for a whole day at her previous day care!! Vickie really knows the dogs individually and what they need. It doesn't stop there, Vickie has helped me with my dogs behaviour issues and nutrition and it has all had such a positive impact on my dogs.
I really can't thank you enough Vickie, Buddy and Scarlet are now much happier dogs and you have played a huge part in that. #pawswoof=happydogs

What do you love most about your job?
Myself (Vickie, the Owner) and the amazing Pawswoof team love our jobs! We are always welcomed to your home when collecting dogs by their excited faces and we love dropping them home so tired they usually go straight to their bed for that all important snooze and dream of the day they've had! We love that our walks are a minimum of an hour and a half but also the fact that we have the freedom to be out longer if we want to! Often you'll find us wondering around Medmerry nature reserve in west Sussex for 4 hours! Its great for our fitness, its great for your dogs fitness, and its awesome for everyone wellbeing.
What inspired you to start your own business?
I had always been passionate about my own dogs and their fitness & nutrition. Beacause of my keen interest in this I started to notice more and more dogs in the area that are incredibly unfit and very unhealthy, this could range from excessively overweight to rotting teeth, to poor or no training to out of control!
With this on my mind I wanted to make a difference and help to keep peoples dogs fit, active and healthy! I had always walked my dogs every day and as active breeds ( both mix but mostly bred with hound breeds so very active and on the go! pictured at the top) they needed more than an hour, they needed more than the local dog park and they needed stimulation when at home! I found some beautiful places with the occasional help of a now, long lost friend, I posted photos of these places and people took a keen interest! People wanted me to share where I was going and asked if I could take their dogs with me! This is where the idea started..
I started thinking about my career and what I wanted to do, did I really want to stay working at the hospital forever? I mean, I have a passion for health, but I also have a passion for dogs and could I combine the two? Be my own boss? Make a difference? I drew up some plans and took out a loan for a van, that was it, I was taking the plunge! I bought my van, I bought some amazing crash tested crates, a van vault, leads, collars and harnesses and I was ready!
Now i spend my days in the woods, on nature reserves, on the beach in the crashing waves or deep in the meadows with grass swishing around my feet. I love my job, I love the dogs I take on adventures lasting over an hour and a half and hey! ( all 43 of you on my books!) Sometimes we get carried away exploring and we are out all day! But thats the nature of Pawswoof! Thats what I wanted! I wanted to take peoples dogs on fit, active adventures exploring our wonderful greenery and beaches! Some people don't know whats on their doorstep! And Pawswoof is here to show you!
Im not stopping there though! I now have a wonderful team and we all share the same passions! We all care about your dogs health, your dogs fitness levels and even your dogs basic training
